Retractable Alr Projector Screen

[120 VAC/60 Hz] Bought this screen to go with my LG projector. I like the smooth retractable closing mechanism. I was going to purchase a cheaper hangable screen but settled for this one for portability and storability. I recommend it if you just want to take with you to your yard for an outdoors movie night and back in to your man/woman etc... cave!

[100" (254 cm)] This is my fourth ALR (ambient light reflecting) screen. The first thing to know is, there are no miracle screens. There are good ALR screens, but none perform miracles. Even the best don't show a great picture in a really bright room. The second thing to know is, don't necessarily believe the promotional pictures and videos from manufacturers that show amazing screen performance. They have positioned the screens, projectors and cameras to show the screens at their very best. You are unlikely to duplicate this in a real world situation. Almost all ALR screens have, to one extent or another, a major problem – screen artifacts. Shimmering, hot spots, sparkles, grainy appearance and so on. In order to eliminate this problem I have owned four different screens. My newest one, which wasn't available when I first started my quest for better picture quality, the Da-Lite Parallax, has none of these problems. Zero! The Parallax probably doesn't have quite as good of ambient light rejection properties as some of the other screens, but with some light control and careful placement of light sources, you can still have light in the room and a great picture. A great artifact free picture is really important now that we have 4K material to watch.

[1.1] We use this projector screen in our church activities.

[Green] I love this Angler Retractable Green Screen. You can mount it with the provided hardware in a room for fast and convenient use or you can use the provided s clamps (I used a slightly bigger set to work with my setup) to mount it with a couple C-stands/Heavy Duty Light stands. It's built well and seems like it will hold up over time. It feels exactly like one of those pull-down school projector screens. I love not having to pull out the steamer just to use the screen, it is a huge time saver. Just pull it down and throw some lights up and you are good to go. I definitely prefer this type of material over the fabric-style screen. Overall this is a quick, convenient, and quality screen. (I received this item in exchange for my honest review)

[1] I plan on mounting this in a small conference room with the supplied hardware for a quick green retractable screen. Which it's going to be perfect. But I'm more excited to take it off the hooks and bring it in the field. I used the advice of the other reviewer here and bought 2 of the heavy-duty metal spring clamps and attached this screen to two light stands. Worked like a charm! Had the screen up in no time at all and it's working perfectly. I am super impressed with the build quality and the overall quality of this product. The screen material seems very well made and the green color is nice and crisp. Doesn't seem to reflect the green color on the subject, and reacts to the light very well. Pull down mechanism is very responsive and feels very solid. This set-up is going to be a game changer for location green screens. No more setting up a big bar across 2 stands or c-stands. No more tying or sliding the green screen material over a long, awkward top bar. No more supporting the material to the ground with sandbags in order to stretch out the material evenly. AND NO MORE WRINKLES. That is fantastic! *Pay no attention to the little waves in the fabric seen in the pictures I uploaded. The pics are from my phone. They fade away to nothing on camera and are easily keyable. Overall, I'm super impressed with this retractable screen. To be able to set-up a green screen of this size, by yourself, in a few minutes is excellent. The speed of set-up and quality of the product will also be impressive for clients. 2 thumbs up!

[ABS] I installed them next to my projector screen and they sound great.

[1x HDMI Male] Anyone looking to extend there monitor onto a TV screen or projector this is the way to go.

[Download] Using this to decode an NDI source to a projector in Church services with live stream. We previously were sending the Presentation Laptops screen to the OBS computer via NDI, and used a separate proprietary wireless video feed to the main projector. Got this so we can use the same NDI source for both and eliminate the wireless projector feed. It is working well. One thing to be aware of: the projector will display will go blank in a couple of seconds if there is no video and audio activity when using NDI Screen Capture as the source. This can be an issue during power points with static screens. You can set the decoder to keep the last thing displayed on the screen or allow it to go blank. I prefer it to go blank so I know something is wrong right away. You can also resolve by making sure the NDI Screen Capture is using an active audio source (like the microphone). This decoder has been reliable and is reasonably priced. Perhaps other decoders won't have the inactivity issue but they are also more expensive. This has not been a show stopper for us.
